Rails in the Aloha State

You’re Doing It Wrong – Chad Pytel and Tammer Saleh As experienced Rails
consultants, and authors of the upcoming Rails Antipatterns book, Chad Pytel
and Tammer Saleh have seen their fair share of terrible code. They’ll discuss
some common AntiPatterns they’ve seen in the wild, and will walk through the
process of refactoring them to bring them in line with current best practices.
They’ll be making use of the latest Rails 3.0 features to transform code from
appalling to awesome. In addition, they will be looking at audience submitted
code snippets, and giving live refactoring advice.

As part of the presentation, Tammer and I will be looking at the worst examples
we can find of real world Rails code, and showing our beautifully refactored
versions. So here’s your chance to show the world just how terrible your code
can get, while getting some free refactoring advice as well!
